Reflections for Traffic Officer Charles Marion Alvitre

Officer Alvitre,
On today, the 100th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just as a Law Enforcement Officer but for our Country as well when you served with the U.S. Army Air Service in Europe fighting the Germans during World War I. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Being the first recorded CHP Motorman to lose his life I thought it was fitting to say Thank you for your service to both the United States of America in WWI as well as the future California Highway Patrol. Being a former CHP motorman I understand your love for the Motor. You belong to the finest Motor squad this country has ever known. God Bless you Traffic Officer Alvitre. Guard the heavens until we all meet.

My father often talked about Officer Alvitre. All the young men around the area looked up to him. My father eventually became a motorcycle officer with the Salinas Police Department achieving the rank of Captain before an early retirement to pursue another career.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 86th anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was murdered on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

Rest In Peace.
